Ubisoft Reveals 4 Player Co-Op for Far Cry 3 At Sony E3 Press Conference

Take over the island in co-op style

Ubisoft just announced at the Sony Press Conference that Far Cry 3 will have 4 player co-op. A group of four friends will be able to play through a dedicated co-operative campaign that will contain a totally separate experience than the single player. Grab your guns and sun tan lotion because we're going to take this island back.

The game play through had four players simultaneously killing the mercenaries that plague the island in Far Cry 3. Ubisoft demonstrated the co-op campaign with a totally new gameplay demo that has never been seen before and it looked very challenging. The players had to work together to complete objectives, revive each other, and of course kill everything that stood in their way.

This was an awesome surprise and we're hopping on the hype train because we're excited to do some more shooting with our co-op buddies. Ubisoft also announced that there will be exclusive DLC for people who pick up Far Cry 3 on the Playstation 3 when it hits store shelves September 4th later this year.

Do they have it playable on the floor? I wasn't particularly impressed by what they showed, but I'm hoping it's better than what it seemed.

I don't suppose there's splitscreen here. Those graphics just look too darn good for splitscreen. Still, I'm glad to see the map maker return. I wish more games would do that.

I liked FC2 but wasn't really considering this because its out just 2 weeks before Borderlands 2. But with co-op, maybe.

I doubt that "dedicated co-op campaign" means what it sounds like.

Yeah, usually "totally separate experience than single player" means they threw in a handful of co-op maps with some simple mission objectives. A la GTA IV & Red Dead Redemption. Who knows though, maybe this will break that unfortunate mold.

Maybe we'll get lucky and they'll allow access to the entire island/world like in the single player campaign. One can hope....
